Defender utility

Maryland defenders: treat like CA AB 1127 peer. Demand proof the firearm meets the cruciform-trigger-bar convertible definition and that the charged act is manufacture/sale/transfer after the Jan 1, 2027 gate (or a covered pre-gate theory). Split converter-installed machinegun theories from bare polymer-notch pistols. Portable for CA PDs arguing converter vs host-pistol charging.

Who this is for. MD PDs / multi-state firms on Glock-switch and convertible-pistol counts; CA PDs as portable AB 1127 analogue — not a California charge.
